	== Program Notes ==		== Program Notes ==
			Prometheus is an abstract, expressionist tone poem for percussion chamber orchestra written by Meyer Kupferman under a grant from the Guggenheim Memorial Foundation in 1975. It is scored for 63 percussion instruments played by six masterful multi-percussionists. The timpanist represents Prometheus. Frank Zappa would say this piece has “no commercial potential.” It is abstract, setting the music apart from practical conditions, sounding theoretical. It celebrates Kupferman’s style and free expression and the music finds a means of acquiring Kupfermans individuality. His music uses his “Infinities Tone Row” in free variation. The story:

			“Prometheus was a Titan who stole fire from heaven and gave it to man. Zeus dooomed him to be bound to Mt. Caucasus and to have a vulture daily consume his liver. And to continue this torment until some immortal should consent to die in Prometheus’s stead. This Chiron did, and Hercules slew the vulture.”
